Tips:

• After these, you will get a unlocked Huawei E585! Congratulations! Now, you can connect your Wi-Fi devices with any 3G mobile broadband operators. Enjoy your 3G trip!

Note: It is a simple process to unlock locked E585, many people unlock it successfully, but there are also some encounter some problem (view this discussioin). I must stress that you do any of this at your own risk. If you get it wrong then you have only yourself to blame.

• Tip: PSAS keeps crashing or won’t work

This may be an issue limited to Windows 7 and the E585 together. The answer to this 

is to reduce the speed that PSAS uses to communicate with the E585. In my case I set the 

speed to 57,600 which worked fine. You do not need a fast speed as you are only going to be 

working with a tiny amount of data to be retrieved from the E585. So just go for a low speed 

or try setting the PSAS speed slower successively until one works.

• Note, you may have to unplug the E585 and then plug it back in again between changes of speed in PSAS. You may also need to power the E585 off and then on again between each speed change.
• For these who don't own a wireless router, you can buy an unlocked E585 directly.

Things You'll Need:

• Firmware update for the E585
• 3g wireless manager
• PSAS software
• Unlock discussion
